Our resident health experts keep claiming Romo’s injury was because he was fragile, while actual spine doctors said it was typical of any athlete and that it would take about 8 weeks to heal without surgery, and lo and behold, the ignorant spine doctors got it right and not our resident forum experts and Romo was throwing darts all over the field in 8 weeks and looking much better than Dak in practice and against the Eagles, to the point even the Eagles right off the bat changed their defensive alignments to take into account Romo’s arm..
I mean let’s also ignore the fact that injury was Romo playing a game just to get back in shape after a collar bone preventative surgery, similar to what Rodgers had to deal with his own issues, and Romo had gained weight and was still slow and just working himself back into shape in training camp, which is what it is for anyways..
let’s also ignore the fact the Seattle lineman cam from behind and gave him basically a dirty hit and came while Romo was actually going in sitting position from the slide.. a defender CANT hit a QB that’s sliding... of course it’s arguable he was in the process, but arguing Romo can’t take a slide or should be aware of a defender coming from behind him, when he’s alresdy sliding for the defender in the front just shows how delusional these guys intent on painting this fragility on Romo.. they can’t even get the play right..
but yeah Romo is supposed to do what humans normally don’t do and when he doesn’t, call him ‘fragile’..
I guess, if it makes you feel better that we benched this guy when we had Zeke and our OL blocking better than ever and could have more than adequately worked him back into the rotation to defend the bum play of Dak and his ability to throw franchise record pick 6s. He should have added to his collection last week if Zeke didn’t knock the ball thrown behind him down..
